AI Summary

This bill aims to enhance the accessibility of government websites in New Mexico. It amends the Workforce Solutions Department Act to require that the department's public access website be fully operational 24/7, to the extent technically feasible. It also amends the One-Stop Business Portal Act to mandate that the portal be accessible and user-friendly, providing a single entry point for businesses to conduct various transactions with state agencies, such as accessing tax information, submitting applications, and making payments. The bill sets deadlines for the development and implementation of these website improvements, with the goal of making government services more accessible and efficient for the public.
